From the To identify the molecular mechanisms involved in
phagocytosis, we generated random insertion mutants of
Dictyostelium discoideum and selected two mutants defective
for phagocytosis. Both represented insertions in the same gene, named
PHG1. This gene encodes a polytopic membrane protein with
an N-terminal lumenal domain and nine potential transmembrane segments.
Homologous genes can be identified in many species; however, their
function is yet to be elucidated. Disruption of PHG1 caused
a selective defect in phagocytosis of latex beads and Escherichia
coli, but not Klebsiella aerogenes bacteria.
This defect in phagocytosis was caused by a decrease in the adhesion of
mutant cells to phagocytosed particles. These results indicate that the
Phg1 protein is involved in the adhesion of Dictyostelium
to various substrates, a crucial event of phagocytosis and demonstrate
the usefulness of a genetic approach to dissect the molecular events
involved in the phagocytic process.

in Dictyostelium Adhesion and Phagocytosis*
